Noa Guy Drops of Consciousness – part one
Using her still photography and pre-recorded string quartet as points of departure, composer–performer Noa Guy collaborates with friends in a journey exploring the edges of audiovisual information processing. This performance examines the emotional reaction to an image of sound and silence, of light and darkness, of being and not being.
Noa Guy’s works include pieces for solo voice to symphonic orchestra as well as multimedia work and music for film and the theatre. This is her first concert after being injured in a car accident 13 years ago.
Guy studied music theory in the Rubin Academy of Music in Jerusalem and composition and electronic music in Berlin. A recipient of several international prizes, she worked with Karlheinz Stockhausen for four years. For three years she performed with American and Dutch composers in concerts of live electronic improvisation. In 1993 she suffered a severe brain injury in a car accident. The process of recovery opened new doors, which led to her active interest in neuroscience, psychology and painting and her search for the temporarily lost land of music. This performance is a break of 13 years of silence.
Producer, pianist and composer Alon Leventon came to the US in 2001 from his native Israel. He since has worked on numerous projects ranging from electronic and pop music, to acoustic jazz to experimental avant-garde music. Alon has been featured on films, radio, TV and many albums both as a producer and performer and as one half of the duo The Bursers.
